AW: [gnso-improvem-impl-sc] SCI meeting agenda

[<KnobenW@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The charter reads:
<<For items that are submitted for review 'on request', the SCI expects to 
receive detailed input from the group affected by the process/operational 
change concerned. Such requests can be made by either the GNSO Council or a 
group chartered by the GNSO Council.>>

Request from individuals is not included.



Best regards
Wolf-Ulrich

Does the charter not define where the issues come from?  I would think it would 
have to be limited by the charter.

Personally my first reaction would be: we should handle it practically and with 
flexibility. Don't start amending the rules unless it is imperative.
Flexibility could mean that the SCI
- for a certain period of time (eg 1 year) monitors how many issues are raised 
by individuals/groups not covered by the charter. In case it exceeds a certain 
volume of requests (depending on the workload) the SCI may strictly return to 
the rules as written and not accept further requests from outside
- for the a.m. period of time the SCI may discuss all issues raised and make 
recommendations/suggestions re the issues in scope
- re Evan's SOI related issue I recall - if I'm right - that he was questioning 
the sense of some of the points asked for in the SOI. I think we should first 
find out whether his issue was more ALAC specific than relevant to the GNSO

What do others mean?


Best regards
Wolf-Ulrich

Hi Wolf, Avri,

Under AOB, you might also want to cover the update to the GNSO Council which is 
scheduled for Prague. In addition to getting clarification on who should be 
responsible for putting out SCI recommendations for public comments (also of 
relevance in relation to the item on consensus items), there is also this issue 
with regard to who may raise issues with the SCI. As you may recall, Evan 
Leibovitch raised a suggestion with regard to the SOI. There may be other 
questions / suggestions that individuals may make in the future relating to 
GNSO Improvements topics. However, the SCI charter says 'requests can be made 
by either the GNSO Council or a group chartered by the GNSO Council'. Should 
individual requests be directed to the GNSO Council for referral, or should 
there be another mechanism? It might be good to get clarification on this as 
well so it can be made clear to those that have proposals / questions.

With best regards,

Marika
